FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a foreigner own 100% of a business in the Philippines?

Yes — up to 100% for export-oriented businesses or with a minimum $200,000 investment. Otherwise, foreign ownership is generally capped at 40% without additional capital requirements.

Do I need to be in the Philippines to register?

No, most of the registration process can be completed remotely through Korp's online platform.

How long does the process take from abroad?

Typically 2 to 6 weeks, and most incorporations are completed entirely online — 9 out of 10 clients never need to visit a government office.

Planning to relocate to run the business?
